Mo Salah's goal vs Porto explained stage-by-stage

Reacting first - as the jet-heeled wideman often does - Salah took one touch to steady himself somewhat with his weaker right after James Milner's effort had struck the woodwork,

Stage 2

That touch saw the ball bounce up invitingly in the six-yard box, and while others may have opted to merely head it goalwards, Liverpool's 29-goal hitman remained cool.

Stage 3

After seeing the onrushing Jose Sa come out to close him down, Salah nonchalantly flicked it out of reach of the despairing Porto keeper.

Stage 4

He wasn't done there though. Salah's impeccable close control afforded him the chance to take yet another touch with his head to steady himself further.

Stage 5

It was now just Alex Telles keeping Salah from doubling Liverpool's advantage, and the Reds forward made light of the Porto defender's last-ditch lunge as he calmly stuck it in the unguarded corner. Porto 0-2 Liverpool. The Portuguese side's defence was truly bamboozled and Salah was up to 30 goals for the season.
